So I’m done with the build and I’m trying to install windows from an usb and in the windows installation it won’t show the ssd m.2, also in the BIOS it only shows the USB

In BIOS, did you configure SATA as IDE?

Nope, the only thing I changed In bios was cpu fan

what mobo? is your m.2 drive not showing up at all, as in your mobo isnt recognizing it? if so make sure it is installed correctly and fully inserted.

ASUS rog strix z590-E

In BIOS, configure SATA as IDE. If that doesn’t work you can always set it back.

If that doesn’t work, you can also try updating your driver as well.

Can you guide me on how to update the drivers

Before you do that, did you confirm that your SSD is not showing up in the BIOS under the boot options?

Yes I removed it and installed again and in boot and storage options it doesn’t show, I am already updating bios

Which CPU do you have? Did you read the manual?

On page 28, it says if you're using 10th gen Intel, you should be putting it in the M.2 2nd slot.
